Academic Ability

The next text should come before any headings. It will appear directly

under the page title.

An Academic Ability is an Ability that can only be learned through formal training, and are usually taught at a school or university. Latin and Artes Liberales are important Academic Abilities. (In ArM5, Latin is one of the languages classified under the (Dead Language) Academic Ability).

Access to Academic Abilities

Beginning characters must meet certain prerequisites in order to take Academic Abilities. Grogs and companions must be educated; in ArM5, this requires one of several Virtues such as Educated or Privileged Upbringing. Magi receive education during their apprenticeship, and can only learn Academic Abilities during or after apprenticeship (unless they have a Virtue that allows then to learn Academic Abilities earlier).
